The information technology casts impacts on diverse aspects, including politics, economy, society, culture & all activities related to human beings. The implementation of information technology has been considered a necessary & effective strategy to meet the needs of new crime trend, combat crimes, & enhance the efficiency of the police.
As far as law enforcement agents in 21st century are concerned, the obsolete crime probe mindset & the outdated equipment have not kept up with the rapid pace of crime detection in new era. Consequently, the aid of information technology becomes an indispensable part in crime detection & prevention.
The police should be equipped with the knowledge of technology so that they are able to fight new trend crimes & burden the responsibility of crime detection. It is therefore imperative 1) to comprehend the current capacity & bottlenecks demonstrated by the police in crime detection, 2) to examine the introduction of information technology as a strategy to improve efficiency of the police, 3) further to prevent crimes, maintain social security, & safeguard the lives & property of citizens.
This is a questionnaire-based study in which a total number of 700 hundred surveys were issued. The valid questionnaires & relevant data were collected for statistical regression analysis corresponding to each research hypothesis. The study found that there was a significantly positive relationship between information technology & efficiency of police. Information technology was divided into four factors ¡§information integration¡¨, ¡§information analysis¡¨, ¡§information exploration¡¨, & ¡§information support¡¨, while police¡¦s efficiency was categorized into ¡§the pearsonal traits of police¡¨, ¡§the behavior of police¡¦s duty, & ¡§the proficiency of police¡¨.
The findings of this study showed that the implementation of information technology has cast positive impacts on the efficiency of police, & this was conducive to enhancement of crimes detection for law enforcement agents.
